Bonnie Farr is a freelance oboist with an active performing career throughout the Midwest. She is the Principal Oboe of the Lexington Philharmonic and Owensboro Symphony Orchestra, and oboe and English horn in the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra and Evansville Philharmonic. A committed pedagogue, she serves as oboe faculty at Northern Kentucky University and teaches private students of all ages at her home in Cincinnati. Bonnie grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee, and earned her BM and MM degrees at Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music studying with Mark Ostoich. She followed her music degrees with a yoga certification at the Association for Yoga and Meditation in Rishikesh, India, which later led to teaching seminars on “Yoga and Meditation for Musicians” at several national conferences and universities. When not making music (or reeds), she spends her time playing with her cats, or collecting far too many houseplants and vinyl records.
